A self-wringing mop comprises a tube 19, inner sleeve 22 and a shaft 16 mounted within and movable with respect to each other, and a mop means comprising strands of absorbent material 15 attached to the tube 19 and shaft 16. The guide pins 21 on the outer surface of the inner sleeve 22 locate in spiral track 20 formed on the internal surface of the tube 19. A handgrip 23 is fixed to the end portion of the inner sleeve 22 and a handle 26 is fixed to a short outer sleeve 25, which is slidable longitudinally on the inner sleeve 22 but is not free to rotate thereon. The tube 19 is linked to the outer sleeve 25 by a bearing means 24 whereby movement of the outer sleeve 25 over the inner sleeve 22 causes rotational movement of the tube 19 engaging the guide pins 21 thereby to wring the mop means 15 in a twisting compressing action. <IMAGE> |
